and 1. Other than the state you currently live in, which state have you visited most often?andand Wisconsin

and 2. If you had to move from your current state, which three states would you most likely consider for a new place to live?

andVirginia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin

and 3. Think of your home state: off the top of your head, do you think you could accurately name your state’s slogan, the state bird, and at least half of the counties (or parishes) that make up your state?

and Let's see: Land of Lincoln, the cardinal, the state animal is the white tail deer. We have a State mineral, although I can't remember what, and considering there are 101 counties in this State, no, I can't name 50 of them. Although I do know my county, what's called the collar counties, there are at least 5 of them, as well as several of the surrounding counties.

andSears Tower, the Water Tower, Water Tower Place, Navy Pier, The Mag Mile, Lincoln's home, Lincoln's Tomb, The Lincoln Library, The Old State House, New Salem, Ulysses S. Grant's Home, Mississippi Palisades, Starved Rock, and Lowden State Forest, Bachelor's Grove, I could go on and on.

Welcome to my world. This blog is dedicated to my family, pets, our other visitors, with maybe a hint of history thrown in for the fun of it. I love books and movies, a good ghost story now and then, and Lord only know what I will chose to write about on any given day. So pull up a seat and pour yourself a cup of something warm and sweet. And enjoy.
